5 Things I would Rather do than Play Final Fantasy XIII


Right, So, Of all the list of games I have to finish, Final Fantasy XIII is probably the easiest, but that's because the game play is so boring!

So I'm sat here, wanting to play, and there is genuinely 5 things that I would rather do than play Final Fantasy XIII

Number 5: Wash the Dishes
This does need doing, not many of them though

Number 4: Clean the Kitchen Floor
Again, another thing that actually needs doing lol

Number 3: Vacuum the Carpet
This, I don't need to do at all and I try to get out of it as much as possible, but hell, I would rather do that than play Final Fantasy XIII

Number 2: Play Shaq Fu
No, Really, at least that is laughingly bad and not boringly bad

Number 1: Write this blog post
Yeah, write a silly blog post is something I would rather do than play Final Fantasy XIII, funny is that :)

FUCK YOU GAME! FUCK YOU ROYAL MAIL!

Yeah, So, Iv been waiting almost 2 weeks for 2 games from GAME to be delivered, £70 worth of games. GAME guarantee delivery within 2-3 days for free (which I stupidly chose) - But, 2 weeks later, THERE STILL NOT HERE!

Now, you could argue that Christmas and the snow has backed a load up, but how come Scott Pilgrim came a day before I expected it and when it was ordered just after the games? Yeah, Exactly.

But, not only that, I won a copy of The Legend of Zelda on the NES on Tuesday (box, manual AND MAP!), that was sent first class recorded (1-2 days delivery), and that hasn't came either, admittedly, that could come on Monday and I would be happy (and leave good feedback), but with a massive company like GAME, you would think it would take less than 2 weeks for a package to arrive!

It really is a piss take, I can't even do anything about it till 15 days after the dispatch date, and even then, thats a Saturday, so it would have to wait till the Monday...

I really am pissed off with GAME and Royal Mail. Never ordering from GAME again, but have no choice but to use Royal Mail for deliverys.

So I sign off with this - FUCK YOU GAME and FUCK YOU ROYAL MAIL!

More Burnt Out?

Here's a little secret for you... I haven't had a shower in over a week, and I haven't had a bath in about 15 years (because showers are better) - Why haven't I had a shower? No Hot Water....

Our boiler is completely fucked, something called the 'Heat Exchange' has died, which isn't sending heat to the water and it will cost about £600 to fix. SCREW THAT!!
Get a new boiler for about £2000 =P

The one we have now, it about 12 years old, so its had a good run, but the only problem is, the boiler guy has too much work on this week, if it was last week, could have got it fitted ASAP, but got too much work on, and a couple of his engineers are out on the Gas Safety Course (which needs renewing every 5 years).

Which begs the question, why is this filed under "Rants?" - Its because I can't have a bloody shower till its sorted, unless its a very cold shower, gonna have to wash after boiling the kettle...

Well, on the plus side, the new boiler will have gadgets hehe

Burnt Out

So, today, I came to a conclusion, I'm just about burnt out with City of Heroes, Its a bloody good game, but really, a brake from it would be a good thing.

This brings me to my next thing, I want to try Cataclysm, the new World of Warcraft expansion, but just until I get the spark back for CoH. I all ready have a Level 80 Warlock, and always wanted a Gnome Priest, so its not as if its a waste of money, and I have a friend who is also going back.

Its possible, I would get the spark back for CoH fast, Its happened before, spend a month or 2 in WoW then thought "This is horrible, its all about the End Game and not the journey, give me Paragon City any day", so started drifting back to there and eventually let my WoW subby stop, CoH was always going though, and will be during this brake (re-new on 21st Jan and runs for 3 months).

So yeah, think I'll pop back to WoW for a little bit, as I was writing this, a friend on Twitter from CoH even said that a brake is a good thing.

Cya on the other side lol

Too Much Money...

For Christmas, I got some money, a lot of money (for me anyway), including the computer, I've spend over half of it, not including the computer, I think I'm up to just over £200.

So, for shits and giggles, here is a list of stuff I have bought with my Christmas Money.

Computer Parts - £519.75 (including postage)
Goldeneye 007 Limited Edition (Wii) - £44.99 using reward points (£49.99 full price)
Super Mario All Stars 25th Anniversary (Wii) - £19.99
Scott Pilgrim vs The World Limited Edition Steel Tin (Blu-Ray) - £17.99
10 Plug Surge Protector - £29.99
1m HDMI Cable - £12.99
Donation to the Real World Hero Charity's - £40 (£10 each)
3 Pints on my Mum and Aunts Birthday - About £8
Nice bit of Weed - £30
Dringage for New Years - About £20

That's it, latterly everything I have bought since I got my Christmas money/present on the 29th December, I do have one or 2 more things I want, like a 250gb Xbox Hard Drive (Between £50 and £80 New) to replace my 20gb drive and a bigger Memory Stick Duo for my PSP (About £25 for 4gb). I also want a Netbook, but cant justify spending £200 on one for myself when I can borrow the Laptop... A new set of Headphones or a Headset would be nice too.

New Years Resolution - 1st post of the year

First off - HAPPY NEW YEAR!

A Few years ago, I said I wouldn't make another New Years Resolution, but this year, I'm braking that and actually making one or two.

Resolution, The First:
Write More

I have all these ideas in my head, but never really write them down, or get a chance too and forget them, so I got to start writing things down and [principle] scripting them, even if they cant be made....yet.

Resolution, The Second:
Finish More Games

Yeah, gotta shrink my "to finish" list, alot.

Resolution, The Third:
Get EBeaver to Level 50 on City of Heroes

3 Years he has been stuck in limbo, currently at 47 I Must get him to 50.

Resolution, The Fourth:
Get DBeaverSP to 50

Yeah, gotta get my Peacebringer to Level 50 too.

Resolution, The Fifth:
Get a Job

Not through lack of trying, I really need a job.

Thats it, 5 resolutions that I hope I keep, yeah... lol
